Ḥāfiẓ Ibrāhīm and Shauqi

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  15 March 2011

Extract

In the summer of 1933, within the short space of two months, Egypt, and with her the whole Islamic world, was twice plunged into deep mourning, by the deaths of two men who, widely divergent in circumstances and character though they were, were in their generation the greatest and the most universally esteemed of Arabic poets. In their own country they had won titles which well indicate the appreciation, even the affection which they enjoyed: Ḥāfiẓ Ibrāhīm was called the “Poet of the Nile”, but Shauqī was called the “Prince of Poets”.
